Yes, it is possible for a rectangle with a perimeter of 52cm to have an area of 148.75 square centimeters

The perimeter of a rectangle is

P=2(l+w)

The area of a rectangle is,

A=l*w

2(l+w)=52

l+w=26

l=26-w

Now plug that into the area formula,

l*w=148.25

(26-w)*w=148.25

26W-W^2=148.25

W^2-26W+148.25=0

There are two positive solutions.

About W=8 and W=18, which gives L=18 and L=8 respectively or an approximately 8x18 cm rectangle.

So yes, you can have a rectangle of perimeter 52 cm and area of 148.25 sq. cm.
